Outdoor Liquid Ant Bait Stations with Borax Colony Control, Four Ready-to-Use 1 oz Cups – TERRO T1804-6
Outdoor Liquid Ant Bait Stations with Borax Colony Control, Four Ready-to-Use 1 oz Cups – TERRO T1804-6
Outdoor liquid ant bait stations use a sweetened borax formula to reach common household ants beyond the workers visible around the home. Four TERRO T1804-6 stations arrive prefilled with one ounce of liquid each, giving ants time to carry bait back to the nest and share it through the colony, including with the queen.
Set the stations flat near active trails in yards, deck spaces, garages or sheds. Push the bait cup down and twist it open to activate the station, then leave the liquid undisturbed while ants feed. Activity may rise at first because foraging ants are attracted to the bait; the source states that the population begins to decline after consumption. Use only for the sweet-eating household ant species listed on the product directions, and place stations where children, pets and non-target animals cannot access them.

The package contains four ready-to-use stations, each prefilled with one fluid ounce of liquid ant bait.
How is each liquid ant bait station activated?
Push the bait cup down, twist it to open the station and place it flat near a route used by ants.
Why might more ants appear after placement?
An initial increase can occur as foraging ants gather at the sweet liquid before carrying bait back to the colony.
